Chapter 125 Taking an Inch and a Mile
"I didn't."
"Oh, no, what about Zhengzheng from Yuehua Pavilion? Or Xiaorou from Biyu Hall? Or perhaps Yusheng Courtyard..."
Wu You shook the item in her hand, indicating that there were others.
"And what about the ten years since the Four Gates disbanded? Where did you go and what did you do? Would you like me to tell everyone here?"
"you......"
He Zhang's face turned red with anger, and he couldn't speak. He wanted to fight back and shut this person up, but the people present wouldn't let him off the hook.
I wanted to tell her that all of this was fake and that she shouldn't believe other people's nonsense, but it was something I had actually done. I was afraid she would produce evidence on the spot. Didn't you see that person was still holding so many things?
"You think you can frame Li Xiangyi based on this alone? You were really just spouting nonsense back then."
Fang Duobing chimed in from the side.
“I have more evidence.”
He Zhang quickly used Fang Duobing's words as an excuse to divert everyone's attention, fearing that this person would reveal that he had kicked the neighbor's dog that morning.
"Sect Leader Xiao, may I ask where the blue stone chessboard from Shan Gu Dao's house is currently stored?"
"It's still inside his house, sealed as is."
"Please have someone carry it up here, Sect Leader Xiao."
Xiao Zijin glanced at Wu You, fearing that she might suddenly blurt out something.
Seeing that she had no reaction, he waved his hand and had someone bring out the blue stone chessboard from Shan Gu Dao's house.
Wu You ignored Xiao Zijin's gaze; he figured he had to let things play out for a while.
Before long, two of Si Gu Men's subordinates carried over a chessboard.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, He Zhang slammed his palm onto the bluestone chessboard. With a loud bang, the center of the chessboard shattered, revealing what was inside.
He Zhang took the contents out and held it above his head: "Look, everyone, what is this?"
“A letter from the Ming Dynasty’s Huang Jinyun.”
Those who knew him gasped in surprise. His words caused a huge stir, and the crowd erupted in a frenzy.
"A letter from the imperial court?"
"How could it be a letter from the imperial court?"
"Could it be that Si Gu Men and the imperial court...?"
"That's right, it's a letter from the imperial court. Back then, Li Xiangyi refused the court's offer to incorporate him into their ranks, so the court wrote a secret letter to Shan Gudao, asking him to replace Li Xiangyi as the leader of the Sigu Sect. Naturally, the leader of the sect refused, so he sealed the letter inside this blue stone chessboard."
"But such a thing could not be hidden from Li Xiangyi, so he came up with a plan to kill two birds with one stone. Li Xiangyi had long wanted to break the agreement with the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance and unify the martial arts world."
"But he is the leader of the righteous alliance, and it is unacceptable for him to lead a war."
He sent Sect Leader Shan to his death as a pretext to launch a massive attack on the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance, intending to wipe them out. If his plan succeeded, the two troubles in his heart would be resolved at the same time.
"It's a pity that Heaven has eyes, and man's plans are no match for Heaven's."
Facing the somewhat skeptical looks from the crowd, He Zhang continued.
"Liu Rujing, let me ask you this: that night, when the sect leader went to Luoyan Ridge alone, you and I were on duty in the courtyard together. Did you hear the argument between him and Li Xiangyi?"
Liu Rujing didn't want to talk to He Zhang.
"What's wrong? You're afraid to say it now?"
"Why don't you dare?"
Li Jin recalled carefully: "I did hear the two of them arguing about matters of the court."
Wu You: You're such a grown man, why are you afraid of being provoked?
This outcry convinced most of those present that they believed what He Zhang had said.
He Zhang pressed his advantage and continued passionately.
"The reason I have remained silent for ten years is because Li Xiangyi's reputation is too great, and I have nowhere to seek justice. Today, taking advantage of the Four Visits Tea Party, I, He Zhang, earnestly request Sect Leader Xiao to move Li Xiangyi's tablet out of the Hall of Heroes of the World."
